Spotlight: Pulled up when unfancied last month at Auteuil in a conditions hurdle; others appeal more as this is a fairly competitive event.

Spotlight: Successful by 9l over 2m1½f at Moulins (conditions hurdle) last month; has won two of her three career starts and goes for a hat-trick today; first go in a handicap over hurdles; from a trainer that does well with this type of horse and she should go close.

Spotlight: Beaten 38l into seventh at Auteuil last month in a conditions hurdle; in-form jockey booked; this looks a decent race so not one to rely on.

Spotlight: Managed two wins in her last three outings; too good for Mr Raffles and Monzon when winning by 1½l (Auteuil) over 2m2f (handicap hurdle) three weeks ago; conceivably will cope with big hike in the weights and one to consider.

Spotlight: Was well on top at the line at Auteuil over 2m2f (handicap hurdle) opening his account last month; rise in ratings means best left.

Spotlight: Beaten a fair way when fourth (Pau) five months ago in a conditions hurdle; makes hurdles handicap debut; returns from an absence here; could have a say as her trainer is a good operator in these races and was successful two starts back.

Spotlight: A winning chaser (two from four); pulled up when unfancied in October at Bordeaux-Le Bouscat in a conditions hurdle; has chalked up three wins from her last six; a leading contender as there is room for further progress in this discipline and would be dangerous to write her off.

Spotlight: Creditable effort in fourth (beaten just under 5l) at Le Lion d'Angers over 2m2½f (handicap hurdle) last month; has won at this course; this looks a fair heat so looks an unlikely winner.

Spotlight: Performed below market expectations when sixth in a conditions hurdle at Nancy last month on debut for this trainer; although a maiden, he has shown ability; making handicap debut in this sphere; he's hard to fancy.

Spotlight: Low strike-rate on the Flat; not disgraced when fourth last Monday in a conditions hurdle; has been fairly consistent of late; first go in a handicap over hurdles.

Spotlight: Couldn't quite get the job done when 14-5 third in October at Bordeaux-Le Bouscat in a conditions hurdle; returns from a break today.

Spotlight: Second, beaten 3l, in a conditions race at Vichy last time out; shown enough to suggest she could get her nose in front one day; finishing third was a good effort six months ago at Fontainebleau in a conditions hurdle; making handicap debut in this sphere; very difficult to fancy returning to this sphere.

Spotlight: Pulled up when unfancied at Auteuil over 2m2f (handicap hurdle, dropped a few pounds since) last month; still seeking a first success after ten starts; meeting some horses in good form and can't go on the shortlist.

Spotlight: Fell in a conditions chase at Compiegne last time; held when 11th beaten 33l over 2m2f at Auteuil (handicap hurdle), finishing well behind reopposing Raffles Princess last month; this looks a fair heat so hard to fancy.
